According to a report in Voetbal International, Eredivisie joint leaders Twente have completed the transfer of Bulgarian goalkeeper Nikolay Mihaylov from Liverpool on a free transfer.

The young shot stopper is currently owned by the Premier League outfit, but Mihaylov never made in into the first team at Liverpool. He had already been farmed out on loan to Twente for the past three seasons.

Mihaylov's Liverpool contract was due to expire at the end of the season and the glovesman has now made his stay in Enschede a permanent one by signing a contract until the summer of 2012.

Current first choice goalie Sander Boschker is widely expected to retire in the near future and Twente coach Steve McClaren sees Mihaylov as the perfect long-term replacement for Boschker. The shot stopper has made seven Eredivisie appearances for Twente so far.
